Universal Remote
Replacement and Code Saver
When the batteries need replacing the remote control will stop work-
ing and will require two (2) new "AA" alkaline batteries for continued
operation. Once you remove the old batteries,program settings and
codes will be saved for 10 minutes,allowing adequate time to insert
new ones.
However, if you do not replace the batteries within the allotted time
(e.g., 10 minutes),you will have to reprogram the remote control.
PROGRAMMING YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
Philips/Magnavox Components
The remote control can control up to three different components and
is already pre-programmed for use with newer Philips/Magnavox
audio/video equipment.Unless you want to change a factory setting,
skip the programming instructions and simply start using your new
remote control.
Programming Other Components
To control component brands other than Philips/Magnavox,you’ll need
to perform the following steps to manually program the remote with
codes listed under Manufacturer’s Codes on pages 23 through 28. Or
as an alternative,you can use the Auto Scan feature,on page 5,to pro-
gram your component codes.
The following chart lists the remote component keys and what type of
device each key will control:
Key Programmed to Control
TV TV
VCR VCR
CBL Cable Box
IMPORTANT: Please completely read and review the following
steps before proceeding. We recommend highlighting the codes (start-
ing on page 23),for the brands you wish to program or writing them
down in the supplied chart.
Setup Codes for My components
TV ___ ___ ___ ___
VCR ___ ___ ___ ___
CBL ___ ___ ___ ___
To Manually Program the Remote Control:
1. Manually turn on a component (e.g.,TV,VCR, etc.) and, if
applicable, insert media (e.g., cassette).
2. On the remote control, press a component key once
(e.g., TV,VCR,CBL).
3. Press and hold SET (approximately 5 seconds) until the
red light blinks twice,then release SET.
4. Enter the first four-digit code for your brand of compo-
nent. If performed correctly, the red light will blink
twice.
5. Aim the remote control at the component and press
POWER ONCE. It should turn off. If it does not
respond,repeat steps 2 and 3,trying each code for your
brand until you find one that works. If it still does not
work, try using Auto Scan (see below) on how to pro-
gram your component.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each component you want
to program into the remote control.
NOTES: Press each key within 10 seconds of the previous entry.
Otherwise, the remote control will exit the programming mode.
If you press SET at any time (except during step 3),the remote con-
trol will exit the programming mode without saving your entries. You
will have to start with step 1 to begin programming again.

SETTING UP YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
Before using your new remote control, you will need to obtain and
install new batteries,as described on the next page. Then you’ll also
need to program the remote control with the correct code numbers
for your specific components. See instructions starting on page 4.

Punch Through
The VCR Transport keys (e.g., REW, PLAY, FFWD,REC, STOP,
AND PAUSE) are set at the factory to control the VCR even if TV or
CBL is the selected mode. In other words,VCR control "punches
through" regardless of what mode is on. Moreover, you do not have to
press VCR before pressing the mode key.
Sleep Feature
Press SLEEP key to activate your component’s internal sleep timer.
(May not be available for all components.) If the component does not
have a sleep function, the first press of the SLEEP key activates the
remote’s built-in sleep timer. Timer can be set to a maximum of 90
minutes.
To Set the Remote’s Built-in Timer
1. Press SLEEP key once,15 minute timer is set. Red light
blinks once.
2. Additional key presses within 10 seconds will increase
the timer value in 15 minute increments up to a maxi-
mum of 90 minutes. For each press of the SLEEP key,
the red light will blink to indicate how many 15 minute
increments have been programmed, e.g., one blink for
first press, two blinks for the second press, etc. Sleep
timer activates 10 seconds after the last press of the
SLEEP key. The red light will blink once every 15 sec-
onds to indicate that the timer is running.
NOTE: Once the sleep timer is running, the sleep timer is automati-
cally canceled if any other key is pressed. The remote IR must be
pointed to the component to turn off component when timer ends.
To Activate Built-in Sleep Timer if component has
